Reference-based constrained deconvolution returning the basophil proportion from EPIC-array blood methylation. The published EPIC IDOL-Ext library used 1,200 CpGs selected to optimize recovery of known artificial-mixture cell-type proportions; pyaging instead inherits Biolearn’s undocumented 240-CpG replacement, whose rows reproducibly comprise 10 positive and 10 negative maximal cell-versus-other methylation contrasts per subtype and are not a subset of the published 1,200 probes. |

Ten-CpG whole-blood mortality risk score. Pyaging implements the paper supplement’s continuous LASSO-weighted score exactly (the sum of ten raw beta values multiplied by their published coefficients). The same study also defines a separate simplified 0-10 aberrant-methylation count based on cohort-specific quartile cutoffs. |
